"Drug needles, used towels, sheets with baked-in crusty powder detergent and a safe that closed (but had no battery to open). If you this intrigues you, read on and see how each room they tried to make our trip better....only failed.
I had been to this hotel for a work trip the year before & had booked 3 rooms during that event for myself and 2 employees. All had been great in 2025.
In our stay for 2026, I had booked 2 rooms. One for my family (first time our kids were old enough to work the special event and join on a work trip) & the other for our other employee. My employee got there first & checked in. We got into town around 9pm. The hotel parking lot was empty with less than 20 cars total.
We checked in & went to the room. The room didn't appear to be dirty, just a little dated & some older carpet. While unpacking, our youngest teen found a hypodermic needle (thankfully capped) tucked in the cabinet next to the refrigerator. Could be for legitimate medical use, but didn't want our kids exposed to any other potential drugs or paraphernalia, so we asked to be moved.
Staff apologized & quickly switched our room. We opened the door to the second to find the room had not been cleaned, lights on, towels on the ground, bed unmade, food on the counters.
Staff apologized & switched us again. 3rd room looked to be the cleanest, but had dried detergent w/chunks flaking off the sheets. The safe locked & the battery died. By midnight, we had our wallet back & tried to sleep."
